Lyrics
A LONG LINE OF LOSERS
GREAT GRAND PAPPY DIED AT THIRTY - THREE
GUNNED DOWN WHEN THEY FOUND THAT ACE UP HIS SELVE
ANOTHER BROKEN BRANCH ON THE FAMILY TREE
MY GRAND DADDY, YOU SHOULD HEAR THE TALES
'BOUT MOONSHINE, HARD TIMES, JUMPING BAIL
NEVER MADE IT TO THE STATE LINE, JUDGE THREW AWAY THE KEY
BASTARDS, GAMBLERS, CHEATS AND BOOZERS
I COME FROM A LONG..... LONG LINE OF LOSERS
MY OLD MAN MARRIED MAMA ON A SUNDAY
SHOTGUN WEDDING NOTHING LIKE THE ONE THEY PLANNED
THEN AGAIN THEY NEVER PLANNED ON ME
WITH OATS LEFT FOR SOWING AND A POCKET FULL OF DOLLARS
DADDY HIT THE TOWN CAME HOME WITH LIPSTICK ON HIS COLLAR
HOW'S THAT FOR A FAMILY HISTORY
(REPEAT CHORUS)
SO GIRL BEFORE YOU GO AND GET YOUR HEART SET ON ME
KNOW THIS MAN DON'T COME WITH NO GUARANTEE
THAT I'LL BE DIFFERENT THAN MY LEGACY
(REPEAT CHORUS)
